Thanks for the suggestion. I just did a quick look of that and am not fully sure what it does. Can you tell me what those tags do, just so I understand more:
* Are they for mobile apps to pull and display a preview about your pages?
* Are they for websites to pull data about an App for your website?
* Other?

Just trying to get more info. We always appreciate any feedback you have.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
this should be the new standard (promoted by facebook) to let links shared on facebook to open in the mobile application (if you have one).

So when you configure your FB app and you set your iOS and adroid app ID in the settings, then whenever a user opens a link on facebook from their mobile if he has your application, the link opens that content inside your native app, otherwise it opens the standard html version of the link.

It is really a nice feature. not urgent but you should put it in your todolist. another good reason to renew your Subscription next year! :-D or you could make a new type of Subscription for it

Here you can see the diagram:
